Dr, Victor Belaunde Called Back
To Peru To Resume State Duties
Pan American Head Will Be Unable To Teach Summer Session Here
Dr. Victor Andres Belaunde, professor of Latin American History and Institutions at the University of Miami, left last Saturday morning via Pan American Airways for Havana, Cuba, from where he will go to Lima, Peru, by the steamer Orduna to join his family and his brother, Dr. Raphael Belaunde, who is now secretary to David Semanez Ocampo, president of Peru.
Upon his arrival in Lima, May 26, Dr. Belaunde will resume his work as editor of the paper “La Mercurio Por Juan’’, and will deliver a series of lectures on history and government at the University
of Lima. He will also conduct a seminar in Peru on the problems and modern currents of political and social thought.
Dr. Belaunde’s brother, Raphael, who is now the confidential secretary of the president of Peru, was granted a leave of absence from the University of Miami, March 21st, to go to Peru and serve his country.
Dr. Belaunde will return to the University of Miami next year and is enthusiastic about the plan of conducting a winter course during the three summer vacation months of January, February, and March for students of Latin America i.t the University of Miami. He is also very much interested in the exchange of students of thé United States and Latin-American countries and thinks that the University of Miami is the logical institute for bringing about this contact.
Dr. Belaunde’s early departure from the University is due to the illness of his wife, who is in Lima, and prevented his accepting the offer of the University of Georgia to deliver the main address at the International Relations and Public Affairs meeting at Athens, Georgia, and participating in the Latin-American Round Table Conference to be held at the University of Virginia.
Dr. Belaunde was to teach Latin-American Affairs at the first summer session at the University of Miami which is to commence June 15, but in his place he has secured

“For Success of Honor Code, All Violation* Msit Be Reported,” New Leader* Declare
In a statement to the Hurricane, newly elected officers of the student body, Joe Eggum, Marguerite Sweat, Byrl Wheeler, Carrington Gramling, and Warrep Grant, expressed the following!views in regard to the enforcement of the honor system:
“The honor system belongs at the University of Miami because we know the students of the University are essentially honorable. However, there are bound to be violations of the honor code by some students. To avoid bringing the honor system into contempt and general disregard these breaches of the Honor Code must be reported to the Honor Court and disposed of. An unpunished cheater receives a higher grade than he deserves, boasts of it, puts himself on an equal plane as to marks with those who honestly earn them, and brings the general reputation of the student body into disrepute.
“A majority of the students do not cheat or steal and want the honor system. For it to survive and succeed, and according to the constitution, every student must report any cheating he may see to the honor court, where the accused will receive a fair and impartial
trial.
I
“We, the majority of the students, who want the honor system, and do not cheat or steal, must not allow the minority who violate our code to lose it for us by not reporting them.”
The new officers have taken a pledge to uphold their beliefs as expressed in this statement.

A music camp for school children will be one of the summer activities of the University of Miami conservatory of music, which will start early in June.
Bertha Foster, dean of the school of music, has worked out a plan | for the wise use of leisure time i which children have on their hands ¡after school closes. Miss Foster believes if music and dancing are presented to children as a delight and a pleasure, with no sense of burden attached, they will enjoy it.
Children will come every day from 9 a. m. to noon to the new university extension building, N.E. Secoetd Ave. and Fourteenth St.. where the shaded grounds and patio and studios furnish a cool setting for a camp. They will receive daily lessons in piano or violin playing and dancing. Storytelling hours and craftwork will keep them employed without monotony. Duet playing, sight reading, and musicianship will be part of the daily work, and their practicing will be supervised as part of the game.
All this work will be in charge I of the regular faculty of the con-
servatorv, and the price for the
instruction has been made reasonable.

Sophomore Class Elections in Assembly Today • 10:30 to 11:00
The proposed Winter Institute of Literature, an institution designed to take advantage of the many authors wintering in Miami by bringing lovers of literature into closer contact with those who make it, will become a reality during the next year of the University of Miami at its first annual session, which will extend from January 18 to February 19, 1932.
Classes will be held at the university on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of each week throughout the session. One hour will be in the forenoon and one in the evening of each of these days.
Juniors and seniors will be eligible to attend the Institute. Others taking the course will consist of special students, members of social and literary clubs in the district, members of college clubs, and winter visitors who are interested in contemporary literature and its makers. Two academic credits in English will be awarded for the completion of the session. The fee for the five week's course will be twenty-five dollars.
One of the purposes of the Institute is to make this district, with the University as the common meeting ground, a center of literary interest. Miami is the best place in the country for a winter colony of authors, and this firsthand contact with men and women of letters is an enviable one for readers of literature.
At least three aspects of literature will be presented each year —poetry, fiction, and drama.
For the first meeting of the Institute (19321, three authors have already accepted the invitation to instruct. Percival Wilde, well known in Miami, will lecture on “One Act Plays”. Edward Davison, a young British poet, will lecture on “British Poets of the Twentieth Century”. Ole Rolvaag's subject will be “Some Aspects of Scandinavian Literature”.
A provisional acceptance has 1 come from Joseph HergVsheimer to lecture on “The Essential American Background of Our Literature”. Robert Frost, who this year won the Pulitzer Prize in poetry, has been invited to talk on “Who j Owns The Poetry”. Padraic Colum (Continued on Page Five)
PUBLICATION BOARD INSTITUTED AT U.
One of the first official acts of Joe Eggum, new president of the student body, is the creation of a Board of Publications to serve as an advisory body to aid in the systematizing and developing of University publications. The Board will consist of three faculty members, three representatives from the Hurricane and the Ibis staffs, and will be headed by the Secretary of Publications.
The proposed power of the Board is expected to include the recommending of appropriations for publications to the senate; recommending appointments to publication staffs; aiding in the solution of advertising problems; and .passing on the advisibility of permitting the soliciting of advertising by such printed matter as football programs, dance tickets, etc., which might interfere with [the Hurricane and Ibis.
